Trips
The afternoon of the third day of the conference (10th May) will be dedicated to a half-day trip based on your preferences. We kindly ask you to select your preferred activity during the registration process. All activities are located around the village of Neratov, where there is a unique church with a glass roof, the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.
Neratov brewery (50 CZK per person)
An attempt to build a brewery in Neratov dates back to 1723, when the Servite Order tried unsuccessfully. At the beginning of the millennium, the Neratov Association followed up by building a brewery. Work on the project began in 2007 and preparations took 10 years to complete the building and start operations. The construction and commissioning of the brewery was the culmination of a long-standing effort by the Neratov Association to restore a traditional place of pilgrimage.

Artillery fortress Hanička (120 CZK per person)
Cancelled
We are very sorry, but the Artillery Fortress Hanička will be closed during our conference due to technical reasons. We can walk around but not inside. :-(
Hanička artillery fortress belongs to the pre-war system of fortifications built in the 1930s to protect Czechoslovakia against the rising threat of Nazi Germany. The fortress was constructed between years 1936 and 1938 by the Prague company Ing. Bedřich Hlava. More info here.

Hiking trip to the observation tower Anenský vrch
The area of Anenský vrch in the Orlické Mountains is a popular destination for many tourists. The observation tower is 17 m high and stands 991 m above sea level. It is named Anna because it stands on the Anenský vrch (Anna Hill) and St. Anna is the patron of the Eagle Mountains.
